GOD (perfection) has no beginning or ending. GOD IS UNIVERSAL LOVE. And man is the very thought and expression of perfect Love.  That’s us!

What can be outside infinite LOVE? Nothing, and in reality anything less than Love does not exist, and cannot touch God, nor man. God and man are inseparable.

As Truth makes man free, so does Love. When we love, we forget self, and “nothing shall be impossible.”

GOLDEN TEXT

1 John 4:21       God has given us this law, an explicit command, that we love our brother as much as we love Him, always seeking the best for each other.

RESPONSIVE READING.

1 John 4:7       Beloved, let us love one another, for love springs forth freely from God; and he who loves his fellowman is born of God and knows and understands God, the power of His Love.

1 John 4:12       No one has ever seen God with human eyes, but if we love one another God makes His permanent home in us, and His Love is made perfect in all that we do, so we see completely what perfect love is and does.

 “Spiritual love makes man conscious that God is his Father, and the consciousness of God as Love gives man power with untold furtherance” Message 1902 p8 29-2.

As with Life, Truth, the infinity of Love brings the fullness of God’s unlimited blessings, our individual and collective experience as the children of Love, our Father-Mother God.

   Bible verses are taken from my combined translations, a free copy of which is available on an excel spreadsheet for those who may be interested. The spreadsheet also includes a genealogy from Adam to Jesus, with related notes. Shared with love. Write to Ken on kengcooper@btinternet.com.
